Strawberry SconeIt seems like most scones skimp on the fruit. This bakes up a fantastic exception. Fresh Strawberries add a sweet touch, and since you cover the whole top with them, there is fruit in every bite of the Strawberry Scone.

Best of all, my daughter loves them! I can actually get her to finish her breakfast, and ask for more, when I bake her these Scones.

Now, scones can be tricky things. To keep the texture right, you need to keep the butter cold. This means handling it with your hot little hands AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. There are some techniques in this recipe to help keep the butter cold, and the scones light. The strawberries are shingled across the top, and then covered with a thin layer of scone dough. You get strawberry in every bite.

A sprinkling of sugar across the top makes it extra sweet.

Before you start baking, put the butter in the freezer for 30 minutes. ( I usually keep a pound of butter in the freezer…you never know when the need for scones will pop up)

Read all instructions before beginning… it saves you from surprises.
